This looks really interesting and is a very innovative idea. I tried the app out but when I attempted to play the video I got the error shown in the snapshot below. I have completed my entry in the #dohackathon also. If you get a chance, check it out and let me know what you think. thx
Edit - Just thought about it and it probably failed because on this computer I don't have a camera connected.
Thank you for your feedback. I think something wrong with your browser. Did you try incognito mode or another browser?
If you can check again using a mobile phone, It will be a pleasure for me.
And I have checked your app. It's great. Good luck with the hackathon.
I'm using FireFox 83.0 64-bit running on Ubuntu 20.04. I'll try it on my mobile here in a bit also and let you know. Thanks for taking a look at my app.
Thank you!
I tried it on my Android device and it worked fine. Also, my desktop browser warned me that there was an update. I updated and now the site works on my desktop browser too. đ
Ohh. Happy to see this feedback. Thank you once again.đ
